Drumree () is a settled area in the civil parish of Knockmark, south County Meath, Ireland, south of Dunsany and approximately 26 km from Dublin city centre. The next nearest settlement was the hamlet at Dunsany Cross Roads.

Lord Dunsany lived at Dunsany Castle to the north for much of his life, and Drumree Railway Station was his local station.{{cite web | title = County Meath Towns | work = goireland.com | url = http://www.countymeath.com/meath_duleek.htm#Drumree | access-date = 2008-07-04 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20080725025559/http://www.countymeath.com/meath_duleek.htm#Drumree | archive-date = 25 July 2008 | url-status = dead
